    I am very proud to announce that 3D Paraglider is now available on Steam, see URL:

    http://store.steampowered.com/app/367990/





    It's come a long way from the early versions and has loads of features, you can choose to play missions such as go find lunch for your buddies, or find medicine for injured fellow pilots (fly around and find
    meds), bomb / destroy buildings, complete courses but what I think is the coolest is that you even earn your own virtual pilots license and earn badges depending on how many air hours you get, just like in real life.

    Do you dream of flying without restrictions, now you can with 3D Paraglider.
    Happy flying, All the best and hope you like it, and enjoy the experience.

    I ported this to Android too (had to scale things down a touch to make it work but still good graphics):
    Google play link
    With added google play highscore leaderboard.
    I love Unity's ability to publish to different platforms!
    IOS and other platforms here I come ? :)

    Progress update for Pre-Steam release.
    Here is a status update of progress being made, looking to get a version ready to release to the steam gaming world:

    New features already added:
    -Walk around anywhere on loaded map (1st person style) and choose where you want to take off from, same deal with landing (if flair used), and take off again..
    -Fixed terrain collision issues.
    -Nice looking animated clouds in relevant places.
    -Nice post processing effects such sunshafts, dirty lens, oil paint effect and other camera effects (can turn off in options).
    -Added big ears animation.
    -Improved altimeter sounds.
    -Improved Intro music, various tracks.
    -High score tables.
    -Added Display speed, altimeter info etc.
    -Achievements (accumulate flying hours to become Rookie>Pilot(EP)>Pilot(CP)>Master>Coach).
    -Working on much better looking buildings in the scenes with cities,
    -Improved wing/glider physics.
    -Nicer courses with beacons and thermal hints.
    -DK2 support.
    -Set the default graphics quality to maximum to improve look of ground textures. But can be set lower if your machine is less powerful.

    Planned to add:
    -Random Wing collapse Animation
    -More Thermal areas
    -Radio voice calls to say well done or chatter
    -Advanced Glider Wing configuration and customisation (painter)
    -Crash animations, possible cut scenes

    Many thanks for looking and comment. I am using tracks from a composer that allows free use of his music if attribution is given, and I think the music fits my game well.

    Getting closer to final Steam submission!
    Here are screenshots of detailing being added to various scenes (no special image effects yet eg DOF or AA, that is coming), Physics is near perfect, now the biggest task left is adding the details and making it look nice:











    Comments welcome :)
